Re: [midatlanticretro] Dazzler successesThanks, Bill. I actually don’t have a Cromemco — my Dazzler is running on my IMSAI. I’m going to re-create the source for this tomorrow to make it portable. If you come across any printed source materials, keep me in mind. I have a bunch of binaries that I may try to run through a disassembler to I can produce a workable source file.

Just to report back on the Dazzler I pulled out of storage, I was able to get The Game of Life to work (with the exception that the LIFE banner doesn’t print...tomorrow’s job). Since the binaries I have are somewhat suspect, I’d like to try to find the original source (or printed copies thereof) of any of the other Dazzler Games programs. Gotcha! is in the manual, but I’d like to get Magenta Martini and Kaleidoscope at a minimum. The others, I think, require the JS1 which I don’t have.

I have the D+7A and an original Cromemco
joystick, so I'm still waiting for a Dazzler - hint :) It's in
Bill S. pics too, side by side his replica, from VCF East 6.0. In the
meantime, I have this little retrohacking project with using a Defender
mainboard that's mounted inside a rackmount case and interfaced to my
Imsai as a video graphics display - so many nice colors. I'm trying to
make a color version of SpaceWar - crossing my fingers.
